When Navy nurse Helen North (Lucille Ball) marries handsome naval officer Frank Beardsley (Henry Fonda), the merging of their 18 children creates two opposing camps of stepsiblings. Both troops do all they can to sabotage their parents' union, but resentment soon gives way to respect and something bigger than any of them could have imagined.
"...both wholesome and funny." VideoHound's Golden Movie Retriever
"...never condescends... Ball...is surprisingly good." TV Guide Online
Editor's Note
Based on a true story. Imagine the Brady Bunch times three! This could well have been the prototype for the famous television series. A widow with eight children marries a widower with a brood of ten.

For once, a wholesome "family" picture with some intelligent scripting... Lucy's drunk scene is a delight in warm, well-made comedy.
